for Storage
NOTE: If you do not plan to use your unit for 30 days or
more, unit should be prepared for storage.
IMPORTANT: It is important to prevent gum deposits
from forming in essentialfuel system parts such as the
carburetor,fuel filter hose or tank during storage. Also,
experience indicates that alcohol-blended fuels (called
gasoholor using ethanol or methanol)can attract mois-
ture which leads to separation and formation of acids
during storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel system
of an engine while in storage. To avoid engine problems,
the fuel system should be emptied before storage of 30
days or longer.Never use engine or carburetor cleaner
products in the fuel tank or permanent damage may
occur.
